With an accelerated deployment, the share of hydrogen in the EU''s energy mix could be as much as 13-20% in 2050. A first comprehensive EU hydrogen strategy was adopted in July 2020, which considered hydrogen investments as critical to accelerate the energy transition and in the context of recovery from the COVID-19 crisis.
Clean hydrogen (''renewable hydrogen'' or ''green hydrogen'') is produced by electrolysis of water with renewable electricity, at a cost range of about 2.5€ -5.5/kg. No GHG is emitted during the process. Grey hydrogen is produced from natural gas by steam-methane reforming at a cost around €1.5/kg, depending on the price of gas and carbon

In early 2020, a "Green Deal" was decided by the EU, the Council and the European Parliament on a proposal by the EU Commission. The goal is to make Europe net emission-free of GHG by 2050. By 2030 emissions should come down 55% compared to 1990. The Green Deal includes a comprehensive list of actions and budgets.
Description. Hydrogen is an essential element in the energy transition and can account for 24% of final energy demand and 5.4m jobs by 2050, says the new study

The EU and other national strategies have put major targets for hydrogen, including at least 10 MtH2 of renewable hydrogen production and 40 GW of installed electrolyzer capacity by 2030. With Deloitte''s tailor-made hydrogen dashboard, the announced and projected demand and supply of hydrogen in Europe can be visualized
Today, the Commission has formally published the two delegated acts outlining detailed rules on the EU definition of renewable hydrogen, following the end of the period of scrutiny for the European Parliament and Council. The first act defines under which conditions hydrogen, hydrogen-based fuels or other energy carriers can be
Fig. 10 shows the life cycle climate change impacts of blue and green hydrogen delivered including production, transport, dispensing, and storage, in which the life cycle climate change impact of avoided emissions reaches nearly 140 megatons C O 2 eq by applying green hydrogen compared with blue hydrogen on the energy demand in the sectors of

On the other hand, the cost of producing green hydrogen ranges from 2.5 to 7 USD/kg. However, in the best-case wind scenario coupled with a low-cost electrolyser, green hydrogen competes with grey hydrogen at approximately 1.5 USD/kg. In about 3.5 years, estimates show that green hydrogen produced using solar and
